Walruses have been having a tough time as sea ice in the Arctic has increasingly retreated from coasts in summer, when the mammals use it as a nursery while they feed in shallow waters. Video from the World Wildlife Fund shows a stampede in Sept. 2009 at Cape Schmidt, Russia. More info:

if I took a video of a dead cat and blamed it on global warming it would be as believable as this. Its sad that a normal event in nature is being used like it is some phenomena that would never have happend if man didnt come along.

I don't know why I find walruses to be so endearing.
This video makes me sad regardless.
